Opening Reception for Through The Grapevine: Winemaking in Niagara

Come out to celebrate the opening of our latest exhibit:

Through The Grapevine: Winemaking in Niagara
The story of Niagara is, in many ways, the story of wine. Our new exhibit traces the region’s winemaking journey. From the earliest attempts in the 1800s, through periods of decline, to the resurgence in the 1970s that led to internationally acclaimed Icewine.

Discover how passionate, ambitious, and resilient individuals overcame unpredictable weather, pests, and other challenges to cultivate grapes and build a thriving wine industry. Through artifacts, photographs, and interactive displays, explore the innovation, dedication, and culture that have shaped Niagara’s world-famous wine heritage.

October 30, 6-8 p.m., Opening remarks beginning at 7 p.m.
